Hello, The RefSeq sequences come directly from Genbank. Check the datasheet there for any information about what component sequences were used to build the consensus (not always available, but worth a look).
Please see the track description for the EST or any other track's color coding/formatting. Click on the track name from within the Assembly viewer to locate this page. There are not tools for "creating" splice variants from the merge of two tracks. However, if you are able to do this manually or programatically yourself, the results can be uploaded back into the browser and viewed as a Custom track. I hope this was helpful. Please check out our FAQ and Help sections to acquaint yourself with the available tools and examples when using them.
